Rain Barrel Workshops
Rain Barrel Workshops with Virginia Beach Master Gardener Water Stewards
Rain Barrel Workshops will take place the second Saturday of the month, March - October from 9:00am - 10:00am at the Virginia Beach Farmer's Market. Workshops are $50 and registration is required. Participants will build a 55-gallon sealed rain barrel and be given a free diverter kit to help with installation on their existing down spout. (See picture to the right.)
This is a family friendly event - children are welcome to come participate with their parents!
August-October workshops:
You can still build a rain barrel!
August-October Rain Barrel Workshops are open for registration, but the workshops will not take place as in-person gatherings due to COVID-19.
You can register (see links below) and we will arrange for you to pick up your rain barrel and assembly kit at the Virginia Beach Farmers Market and you can make your barrel at home. All the parts (including the special drill bits) are in the kit; all you need is a drill.
Once you have registered, we will contact you to make arrangements to pick up your barrel and kit.
